							- # get-caller-file
 
- [](https://travis-ci.org/stefanpenner/get-caller-file)
 
- [](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/embercli/get-caller-file/branch/master)
 
- This is a utility, which allows a function to figure out from which file it was invoked. It does so by inspecting v8's stack trace at the time it is invoked.
 
- Inspired by http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13227489
 
- *note: this relies on Node/V8 specific APIs, as such other runtimes may not work*
 
- ## Installation
 
- ```bash
 
- yarn add get-caller-file
 
- ```
 
- ## Usage
 
- Given:
 
- ```js
 
- // ./foo.js
 
- const getCallerFile = require('get-caller-file');
 
- module.exports = function() {
 
-   return getCallerFile(); // figures out who called it
 
- };
 
- ```
 
- ```js
 
- // index.js
 
- const foo = require('./foo');
 
- foo() // => /full/path/to/this/file/index.js
 
- ```
 
- ## Options:
 
- * `getCallerFile(position = 2)`: where position is stack frame whos fileName we want.
